data availability

The International Journal of Advanced Fertility and Reproductive Sciences encourages authors to promote transparency, reproducibility, and responsible sharing of research data. Authors should provide sufficient information about the data supporting their findings to enable appropriate evaluation and, where possible, independent verification of the research.

Authors should include a Data Availability Statement with their manuscript when applicable. The statement should clearly indicate whether the data supporting the study are publicly available, available upon reasonable request, deposited in a recognized data repository, or subject to restrictions.

Where data cannot be shared because of privacy, confidentiality, ethical, legal, or other legitimate restrictions, authors should explain the reason and provide information about how access may be considered where appropriate.

Authors must ensure that shared research data are accurate, properly documented, ethically obtained, and handled in accordance with applicable privacy, consent, and research requirements. Personal or confidential information must not be disclosed without appropriate authorization.
